Coolest Super Mario Cake

I know fondant is popular but I still love making the cakes form pure buttercream. This Super Mario Cake is simply a big 10″ round cake pan for the base, frosted red, the bottom of the giant cupcake pan for the mushroom base, and half a ball pan for the top of the mushroom. I split two cake mixes amongst the three pans, baked them all at once.

I used a fork to texture the sides of the mushroom base, then very carefully smoothed the mushroom top (I’m sure you can also star tip it and get a beautiful result) and base and piped on white spots. Leaf tip to make leaves around the base of the mushroom.

I ordered the Mario and friends figurines online on eBay, took about 2 weeks to get them from Tokyo but I couldn’t find any anywhere – it was so easy to order them and my son LOVED it!
